Welcome to the Patio Cottage! This delightful eco-friendly retreat is the perfect base for the single traveler or couples looking to explore the vibrant streets of Portland while indulging in down times in a peaceful and relaxing environment.

Encamped at the far end of a secret patio, you're just steps from the lively neighborhood Alberta Arts District and Williams and Mississippi Avenues with their local breweries, bars, shops, vegan eateries, and more.

ARRIVING

When you open the large handmade gates, the natural serene atmosphere of the spacious stone patio at once transports you from the tumult of the outside world.

Step to the far end of the patio and into the cottage through its double French doors. Make yourself at home in the cozy sitting area surrounded by tasteful decor and bright relaxing colors.

The well-lit space features vaulted ceiling, custom woodwork, and natural stone and bamboo floors. Settle back on the loveseat while enjoying the view outside or curl up with a good book on a rainy day.

AMENITIES

Take advantage of the space and its amenities provided with your comfort in mind, with its fully equipped kitchen, ample countertop space, and luxurious queen bed.

Prepare meals or snacks using the full-size fridge, induction cooktop, microwave, toaster oven, and French coffee press.

The private bathroom features a high-pressure shower, complementary organic toiletries and soft organic cotton towels. Plus, you'll find an iron and ironing board, a lighted closet with plenty of storage, a luggage rack, and ample countertop space.

At the end of the day, you can close the room-darkening curtains and be lulled into a restful night's sleep in your hidden sanctuary with the queen bed’s memory foam mattress and organic cotton sheets.

ECO FRIENDLY

Complementary organic fair trade coffee and teas are provided. Filtered tap water delivered directly from the pure mountain reservoir lets you avoid bottled water and help reduce plastic pollution to protect our oceans and ecosystems. Bins for easy separation of recyclables and compost are provided under the kitchen sink.

THE PATIO

Your stay in the cottage enables you use of the stone patio. Savor your morning coffee at the covered bistro table while planning your day's adventures in Portland and its surrounding scenic areas. The patio is also perfect for enjoying the afternoon sun, unwinding in the shade with drinks around the gas fire pit on the ultra-comfy lounge set, or relaxing with a romantic al fresco dinner at the patio table.

YOUR PERSONAL SPACE

Scott, your friendly and welcoming host, values your privacy and space yet is available nearby on the property to answer any questions about things to see and do or if any needs or issues arise, ensuring your stay exceeds your expectations.

This is a self-check-in vacation rental designed to provide you with total peace and privacy. Detailed check-in instructions will be provided on your arrival date, along with the lock code for seamless entry.
